- Use fresh or frozen blueberries depending on availability; if using frozen, you may want to thaw them slightly before mixing.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey added or omitting it for a lower sugar breakfast.
- Chia seeds help thicken the mixture and add nutritional benefits like omega-3 fatty acids and fiber.
- Overnight oats can be prepared up to 2 days in advance for convenience.
